[Verse 1]
I saved your soul for the last time
A million's not a mistake
I'm the pill that you hold
I'm the story you told to keep you friends and your family away
You're so soft but you're violent
The gun won't cover your sins
Life is Russian roulette
You know that I'm up next
A bullet never lies to a friend or stop to talk about it

[Chorus]
Where were you when you went wrong
Where were you when you passed me by
Where were you in the meantime
You know I think my family saved my life
So tell me where were you

[Verse 2]
You brought it back with a fire
They cut it out of your skin
You were the last one to know
There was no chance for hope
Your way out exchange for where to begin
Your soul is strong in the silence
Just a word to defend
You know your love's built on sex
Full of fear and regret
Your eyes they show nothing but quit
Your mouth just talks about it
I'm left broken
[Chorus]
Where were you when you went wrong
Where were you when it feels so right
Where were you in the meantime
You know I think your absence saved my life
So tell me where were you
Everybody needs someone to live for
Everybody needs someone to die for
Everybody needs someone to kill for
Everybody needs someone so where were you
